We stayed for 1 night here and found Martina to be very welcoming. The immediate feeling was one of relaxation and comfort. The house is very tastefully decorated, warm,comfortable and peaceful, without being boring. Just a short drive into busy Westport and surrounding areas makes it a good spot for the best of both! The breakfast is the Best in... More

The Garden Gates B&B was the second of four places we stayed on our circle tour of Ireland/Northern Ireland in Aug 2012. We chose it largely on the hugely positive reviews on Trip Advisor...and were not disappointed in the slightest. Martina is super-friendy and runs a very professional B&B. Being a family of four (two adults, two teens), we were... More

This is hands down one of the best places I ever stayed in. The owner, Martina, is a very kind of hospitable lady. Our room was big and had a great view - we saw Croagh Patrick from our windows. The B&B is located alongside a very quiet countryroad, so you will not be bothered by anything basically. It is... More

We stayed at the Garden Gates in 2009 and loved it then. It was just as wonderful this time. Martina is very welcoming, the breakfasts are outstanding, the room has all the amenities and comforts of home, and the location is very peaceful and beautiful. The B&B is located about 10 minutes from Westport and 10 minutes from Castlebar. Highly... More

From the moment Martina , the proprietress, welcomed us over her threshold we knew would would love it here. Five days of perfect peace in all kinds of Irish weather, sharing the tranquility and beauty of our surroundings with Ginger, the mare, who we watched browsing the field from our bedroom window. Our room was warm and spacious with splendid... More

We stayed at The Garden Gates B&B for just one night and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. This B&B has all the bells and whistles of a 5 star establishment and more. Our host Martina (and her two very friendly dogs) was very welcoming. She made us feel very at home straight away and was incredibly accommodating of my disabled mother.... More

We loved staying at The Garden Gates! Martina is the warmest person, so helpful and full of information about the area. We loved the lovely country setting and it's very convenient to Westport. The breakfast Martina made was just fantastic. Our room was a great size and everything was very clean. I would highly recommend staying at The Garden Gates... More
